Question

How can irrigation be reduced for potato crops in Florida?

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

By combining drip and flood irrigation. Drip irrigation is a type of micro-irrigation system that has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below the surface. The goal is to place water directly into the root zone and minimize evaporation.

Flood irrigation is a practice in which an entire field is covered with water, while furrow irrigation adds water through furrows adjacent to crop beds. In flood irrigation systems, soils experience highly anoxic periods which promote denitrification processes.
